Abstract: Parental health education significantly impacts early childhood learning by shaping children's physical, emotional, and cognitive development. Educated parents can make informed decisions about nutrition, health, and emotional well-being, fostering an environment conducive to early learning. This paper explores the relationship between parental health education and early childhood learning outcomes, identifying key mechanisms, analyzing evidence from diverse socio-economic contexts, and highlighting challenges and limitations. Recommendations for enhancing parental health education programs are proposed, emphasizing inclusive approaches and multi-sectoral collaboration. The study underscores the critical role of empowering parents in fostering sustainable developmental outcomes and achieving global educational goals.
